2383-2385 16th Ave, San Francisco, CA 94116

The property at 2383-2385 16th Avenue is a two-unit, two-story multi-family residential building located in the Inner Parkside neighborhood. Built in 1926 and currently owned by Vincent T Chow and Eric Tsang, this flats/duplex structure has undergone several significant renovations over the past few decades.

The most substantial recent work occurred between 2004-2006, including kitchen and bathroom remodeling (totaling approximately $48,000 in permits), electrical upgrades, and improvements to the rear stairs in the backyard. More recent concerns have emerged regarding the building's plumbing infrastructure, with multiple sewer-related incidents reported in 2024, including sewage back-up discharges and sewer odor complaints, some of which remain open as of October 2024.

The property's maintenance history shows attention to both interior and exterior improvements, with completed projects including kitchen and bathroom upgrades, electrical system enhancements (installing numerous lights, switches, receptacles, and circuits), and structural work like staircase replacements. However, the recent spike in sewer-related issues, particularly the unresolved sewage discharge complaints in July 2024 and a more recent incident in October 2024, suggests an emerging maintenance challenge. The building has also had recurring issues with driveway blocking, evidenced by four parking enforcement citations between 2022 and 2023, though these are separate from the building's structural and maintenance concerns.
